Photo widget refreshing

My photo widget on the iPhone is showing the same set of photos for many days and sometimes weeks. How do I refresh it every day / few days?

Hi there RKuest,


If you would like to adjust which photos are shown in the Photos widget on your iPhone, you can do so using the most relevant section of this article: Manage memories and featured photos in Photos on iPhone


If you would prefer to select a specific album for the Photos widget to use instead of using memories or featured photos, follow these steps from Organize and find your photos on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to choose which photos would be in the album and therefore displayed in the Photos widget:

Create a new album
1. Open Photos.
2. Go to Albums and tap the Add button Add button.
3. Tap New Album. Type an album name, tap Save, then choose the photos and videos that you want to add.
4. Tap Done.

Add to an existing album
1. Open Photos.
2. Tap Select, then tap the photos and videos that you want to add.
3. Tap the Share button Share button, then tap Add to Album and choose an album.

Manage your albums
To change the name of an album:
1. Go to the album and tap the More button More button.
2. Tap Rename Album.
3. Change the name, then tap Save.

To rearrange your albums:
1. Go to Albums, tap See All, then tap Edit.
2. Touch and hold an album and drag it anywhere you want.
3. Tap Done.

With iOS 14 and later, you can also sort the photos within your albums. Here's how:
1. Go to an album, then tap the More button More button.
2. Tap Sort, then choose a sorting option, like Custom Order, Oldest to Newest, or Newest to Oldest.


Take care!
